Chapter 12 - Surprise & a Game

Ella's POV:

When I get a call, I excuse myself to Mark's kitchen. I close the door to it and I press accept to the call knowing its from Ash by the music.

"Hey Ash! What's up?" I say leaning on the counter.

"Hi! Okay so were heading back, we'll be there soon! Okay?" she says as I hear laughter in the background.

"Okay!"

"Okay, by-"

"Wait, Ash?" I say remembering to tell her about Mark.... should I tell her about that dream... 'cause now I'm pretty sure that guy in the dream that saved me.... was Mark.

"Uh yeah?" she says confused.

"Uh so since I've been here, I've noticed Mark staring at me a couple of times.... and I can't help but admit... I think I like him... I mean I have butterflies everytime I catch him stare.. I blush whenever he does something funny and I think of him like this..." I pause. And I swear in this quick silence, I can hear Ash's smirk.

"Ohhhh, I see and I can tell there's something else right?" she says, and this time I know she's smiling.

"Yeah, so I had this dream where..." I think of how to phrase Zack," um, my ex boyfriend was trying to kidnap me or something and all of a sudden, this guy came up and saved me... I didn't realize it then, but now... I know it was Mark... I just don't know what to do....

Anyways I don't think he would be looking for someone like me, or anyone right now." i say opening the fridge and stealing a grape.

"Are you sure? You should still try and see... ya know, if he likes you back. " Ash replies calmly.

"Oh, by the way, how many friends are there at his house?"

" Um, hold on..." I pull my Hand over the speaker and peak out into the living room. Lets see, Bob, Wade, Sean, and Jordan... I guess the other two wondered off.

"Um, 6 including Mark..." I say going back to the phone.

"Oh wow! Okay! Are they... girls and guys?" She says cheerfully.

"Um, no... they're all guys. " I laugh.

"Okayyy... well, we'll see you shortly! Byeeee!!!"

"Bye!" I say ending the call.

I walk back out into the living room and notice Felix and Mark are back. I sit next to Mark hearing the boys are picking out a movie to watch. I look over at Mark and Felix to see Mark pushing Felix's shoulder. Boys. Always play fighting...

As the movie is pushed into the dvd player, Jordan looks really guilty, yet smiling.

As the movie begins, I hear " Naaa supenya!..." and I see a sunset.

"Really? The Lion King?" Bob says looking at the screen as it begins as I light up with joy.

"Shut up! I love this movie!" Mark says as he throws a pillow at Bob.

I squeal and decide to lay on Mark and Felix. I plop on my side and put my feet on Felix's lap and my side on Mark with my head on the arm rest.

"Ella! Can you turn it up?! Please!" Wade yells at me.

I groan and say, "But I just layed down!"

"Pleaseeeeeee!!!!!" He begs.

"Ugg fine, but I'm not doing it again!" I say grabing the remote and turning the volume up. When I go to set it down, the remote flys out of my hand and slides across the floor.
